HEY BOBCATS!

Hope you’re healthy and hunkering down. These are challenging times no doubt, but
we’re here to help you stay on track with your educational goals and are equipped
for this term with virtual learning methods and materials — and the support of the
entire College — to make things go as smoothly as possible. Thanks for your adaptability
throughout all this. We’re in it together.

Access to COCC's facilities will be restricted to faculty and staff only — with the
exception of the computer labs (see below). There will be remote instruction only,
with some exemptions related to health care programs (as outlined in the Governor’s
Executive Order), through at least April 28. Keep on scrolling (and hunkering), 'cats.

Also, the College offers free counseling sessions — on everything from anxiety to
relationship difficulties — with professionals from St. Charles Behavioral Health.
You can make an appointment here. If you’re having a mental health emergency, call the Deschutes County Mental Health
crisis line at 541-322-7500, ext. 9.
